Frequency DiscountsAll successful ad campaigns, regardless of your budget, have one thing in common —

frequency. The more times your ad appears, the more impressions it makes. The Red &

Black offers discounts that allow you to build that all-important frequency — and save

you money!

12-Month Frequency Packages

For larger advertisers and those who plan a year’s marketing budget in advance, this is an effect way to plan

your campaigns and maximize your savings. Your account executive will work with you to create a package of

advertising, giving you discounts based on the number of ads booked. You can select from any regular ads in

any of our publications or digital platforms.

All frequency contracts last one year from the date of your first insertion. Order 40 ads to run in the fall and

spring? You can save 40% if you place new ads in the summer.

Semester Packages

For small businesses and those with a focused seasonal strategy, we offer semester packages that make

booking and budgeting simple with savings of more than 30% on our standard products.

Extend your savings! In addition to one of these packages, you can order 4 additional ads in any of our

publications or platforms at a 20% discount.

Athens’ next generation

Charlotte Norsworthy

Lead Enterprise Reporter

From the front porch of his house in the

Parkview Extension affordable housing commu-

nity on Baxter Street, a Clarke Middle School

student can watch as University of Georgia stu-

dents walk by.

Glued to a cell phone, the 11-year-old seemed

unphased. But his mother said they both recog-

nize the clear discrepancy between what UGA

students own and what children in affordable

housing have access to.

“You see students walk by every day with so

much. Bookbags, nice shoes … kids living here

notice,” the mother said.

She’s in her 30s and unemployed. It’s been dif-

ficult to nail down a job since she graduated from

Clarke Central.

“I’ve applied to hotels, downtown …” she said.

“But students get those.”

Her story is not uncommon in Clarke County,

where the poverty rate sits well above the na-

tional average despite housing the state’s flag-

ship institution. But for her son and others like

him, achieving economic mobility will involve

several hurdles, the first of which involves grad-

uating from high school.

As poverty becomes a growing concern to lo-

cals and advocates, many are calling upon the

public school system, the university and local

government to initiate structural change.

Hurdles and helping hands

Wick Prichard picked collard leaves from a stu-

dent garden outside of Clarke Middle School on

Baxter Street on Monday, as he does every week,

to sell at a picnic table outside the school.

Prichard is the coordinator of Grow It Know

It, a program through the Clarke County School

District and UGA Extension that seeks to help

students in the public school system understand

and address issues of poverty and food insecu-

rity. S E E AT H E N S P A G E A 4
